I am going to weigh heavily with this comment because I think it's right on point. This does sound like what he is doing, and telling you everything you want to hear is the trap men use time and time again because they think we are too stupid to know better, or just as needy as them that we need it.

I agree with others have said, and to make yourself less available today. I am getting a bad feeling about this Valentine's Day date tomorrow, I know you are dead set on going, but if you were supposed to meet a bunch of people at that music event, can you just skip the dinner and meet him there with everyone else in attendance?

Just a thought.
